And what side of the brain works with each of those? I have often heard that the right side of the brain is more in tune with left handers and the left side of the brain is more in tune with right handers. What does the right side of the brain control and what does the left side of the brain control?

Left handers are more likely to be musicians or artists. Left handers are more likely to be authors. Left handers are more creative and holistic.
Robert DiNiro, Mark Twian, Bart Simpson, Jack the Ripper, George Bush the Elder, Bill Clinton, Gerald Ford, Harry S Truman, Michaelangelo, Shields and Yarnell..........etc., etc.
Left handers are right-brain dominant. Right handers are left-brain dominant.

True to a certain respect, but not even neuro scholars agree.
As you may know a person using their left hand during the middle ages was considered to be demonstrating signs of Satanism etc.
There is literature that discusses the idea natural selection (since even though we don't know why we know left handedness tends to be genetic), which says left handedness may actually offer a higher incidence of survival within the scope of evolution. Think about the sporting elite, Babe Ruth etc.
I enclosed a link to an excellent scholarly article.

I am ambilateral. I use my left hand for eating and writing but everything else is right hand (sports etc).
One side of the brain is more visual conceptual etc and the other is more analytical.

Left side brain controls right side and vice-versa.
